title: Clipping
description: Run a clipping campaign to get your content clipped everywhere, or earn by clipping other creators — how the two sides fit together on Insy.
---

Clipping turns one creator's content into hundreds of short videos. A **creator** puts up a campaign
with a budget and a pay rate; **clippers** cut short clips from that creator's material, post them on
their own social accounts, and earn based on the views those clips pull in. Insy sits in the middle:
tracking views, working out what each clip is worth, and moving money from the budget to the
clippers.

Which side you're on decides where you start.

## How a campaign works, end to end

1. **A creator funds a campaign**

    The creator builds a campaign, sets a pay rate for each platform, and puts money into its budget.
    Nothing runs until that first deposit lands — the deposit switches the campaign on.

2. **Clippers join and post clips**

    A clipper verifies the social account they'll post from, joins the campaign, and submits the link
    to each clip they publish on TikTok, Instagram or YouTube.

3. **Insy tracks the views**

    Insy checks each clip on the platform and records how its view count grows. What a clip is worth
    follows directly from those views and the campaign's rate.

4. **The creator approves, and clippers get paid**

    The creator approves the clips that follow the rules. Approved clips earn out of the budget, and
    the reward lands in the clipper's Insy wallet to withdraw.

> Clipping is a distinct part of Insy from selling communities or products, and it's rolled out
> gradually. If you don't see it in your account, it's not enabled for you yet — that's expected, not a
> fault.

## Where the money is

Both sides touch the wallet from opposite ends: a creator's budget is money going **out** to pay for
reach; a clipper's rewards are money coming **in**. The payout side — balances, holds and getting
money out to a bank or crypto wallet — is shared with the rest of Insy.
